Oglala Lakota College / Nursing Program (ADN,
BSN, MSN, PhD):"Nursing offers a wide variety of opportunities
for those who choose to make it a career.
Academic degree programs in nursing are developed
to offer participants a career ladder approach,
that is, you may earn degrees in sequence
with one degree building on the next. For
example, once you have earned the associate
degree in nursing and become licensed to
practice as a registered nurse, you may begin
to work on a baccalaureate degree in nursing,
followed by a master’s degree, and ultimately
a doctoral degree in nursing. Nurses with
higher degrees fill jobs with expanding roles
and responsibilities including research,
education, leadership and administration.
Some students start the “ladder” approach
by first becoming licensed practical nurses. You
will be exposed to upward mobility opportunities
and pathways as you proceed through this
program."
